I so totally know what you are going through. My three-year old doesn't like to say goodnight either. She always has to tell me something just to keep me in the room with her. I have always read books to her before bedtime, but I started something new about 4months ago. She now has a cute little table lamp in her room, and at "bed book time" that light goes on, and her room light goes off. We read, say our prayers, and she is allowed to read a book to her baby doll for five minutes and I leave her alone with the lamp on. In five minutes I go back in the room, turn the light off and take the book away. She loves it. I hope that this idea can be of some help to you. Good luck.
